Hi,

 

Since I installed ethereal version 0.10.11 I’m experiencing a strange behavior and I want to know

if I’m the only one.   ( ethereal windows version 0.10.11 running on Windows XP Pro   SP1)

 

Some would try this and tell me if he is experiencing the same as me ?

 

1 – Open a trace with Ethereal

 

2 – Save it as  Network Associate (DOS based) format    with the same filename as the opened one but add extension .enc

 

3 – Try  to open any trace in that directory.  Ethereal should crash to windows.

 

4 – Work around.   Copy the trace to another directory and it will open successfully.

 

 

For me it looks like when saving in Network Associate format, this change some permission or

I don’t know what in the directory that make ethereal to crash.

 

Please let me know if you experience the same as me or not.

 

Regards.
